Yeah, as I said before I did this because I doubt that only four people could be an entire branch.This pretty good,We don't know much about judgement in canon,expy form other manga is interesting.

[JK] Grab Accelerator, pull him in front of you as a human shield.
I know this is a joke, but I thought about what something like this would actually involve ... And it's actually quite hilarious how things would likely turn out. Well, that or tragic, depending on if you subscribe to the @shadenight123 school of humor or not.
Accelerator's ability is passive and always on. I'm not sure he even can turn it off, and certainly not on a dime like this. Shoving him in front of Touma while Mikoto charges up and fires her rail gun would lead to Mikoto promptly losing the upper half of her body barring a miracle, much like almost happened in her first encounter with Accelerator in canon, and she only lived there because she was moving while shooting, IIRC.
Karmic irony at it's finest, but not one most here would appreciate.

Not entirely sure what you mean by "Not as easy as you'd think" I was when I noted it being easy referring to the effort for him, not the ease of others overcoming it. Also, he did at later points show he can quickly turn it off or otherwise rapidly do fine control with his power, though he has to actually attempt to do so and presumably apply some degree of focus to the task (as his power requires he make the calculations needed to alter the vector in the manner he desires, while his passive is more or less multiply all vectors touching him by -1).Look up how the first Sister died. It's not as easy as you'd think, and his passive deflection isn't something that he changes quickly.
I realize that the scenario was not him blocking it with his hand. I initially brought up Touma's negation power in reference to that he may cancel out the Accelerator's power by grabbing him, thus making him a fairly useless shield, being no better than any other person, though I then went on to comment offhandedly that just using the hand would be a more effective method of blocking. I was not attempting to claim that the hand was being used to block in the joke vote.As for Touma being able to handle Mikoto's railgun, of course he can do it, but that wasn't the scenario posited, if you'd read the posts more carefully.
This is inaccurate. While there may be some degree of misunderstanding due to unclear wording on my part, I was intending to convey that Mikoto could presumably use her power to avoid being hit by the reversed railgun provided she was prepared to do so. While she does not do this in her canon fight with him, she was already moving and dodging thus making such an effort unneeded, and as I noted redirecting her railgun would require extremely fast timing given the speeds at which it moves. The reasoning behind my belief that she could in theory do so is the fine control, power, and range her ability is shown to have in canon (I also seem to vaguely recall her actually at some point curving a railgun shot, or possibly a shot from the Meltdowner, though I could be misremembering since it has been some time since I read it). In any event she has displayed the control and power needed to alter an already fired railgun's trajectory, if not the reflexes hence my noting that she would be unlikely to pull off such a feat in the proposed situation of shooting the Accelerator accidentally at close range and responding before the shot rebounded into her.As for Mikoto being able to reverse it, no she can't, and we've seen it shown in canon with Accelerator. There's no point pretending otherwise, particularly when it's overly optimistic speculation that ignores how numerous variables have been added.
That said, it is also worth noting that if she was prepared, Mikoto could presumably cancel out her rail gun as soon as it was reversed back at her based on the level of control over electricity she shows, however given the timing involved, she'd have to be ready to do so ahead of time, or it would likely be too late.
